69 Coronet R/T Project

I have been holding onto this car for 3 years. I am finally at a place where I can get started. The car is at Churchwell Fabrications in Maud, TX. The owner is a friend who does outstanding work on older cars and trucks (churchwellfabricationsllc.com).

Awesome model to start out with, IMO.

A few minor areas Scott Churchwell found after blasting that he will be cleaning up. Ordered the sub-frame connectors and mini-tub kit from US Car Tool.

Not much to update after the shop visit. They are still smoothing out the Quarter Panels and will start working the roof & hood.

Went back out today. Some more progress on the roof and quarters. The shop put my boy to work for a bit. Had him sanding and hammering on the trunk lid. He is going back next Friday to help some more. Trying to get him hooked while he is young.

Been awhile since I have updated. A lot of time spent just getting the little things fixed and smoothed out on the Coronet. Hood and Trunk lids almost finished. Some patching in the floor to be completed, but the body panels are finished and in final primer.

Undercoating will be applied underneath the car, in the trunk, and in the wheel wells.
